Valium Tolerance

[Sad Bear]

I've been taking 25mgs of Valium for 8 months and seem to have developed a tolerance to it. If I take a whooping dose- well over a gram. As part of my CTB method (not just the Valium by itself) do you know if despite my tolerance that the Valium would work given the high dose? Thanks

Your doctor should have stop delivering you valium after 3 ou 4 months because the body becomes addicted to this after few months.

Anyway , I don't know which method you plan to use to CTB, but because of the bad experience I had trying to ctb with drugs , I strongly recommence to avoid valium.

Can I ask why you'd avoid Valium? I figured it would help as it's a CNA depressant and should help relax me as I slip away

Because you would need to incrementally increase the dosage to have the same effect. If they don't want you to stop, they should have at least changed it to a different benzo after few months.

I asked for a change of Benzos but they refused. I don't know why. When I attempt to CTB I plan to take well over a gram. I figure despite my tolerance,that such a big dose would still work?
I should also add that I'm going to use the Amiltryptaline method. Not overly recommend I know, but it's the only option I've got

15 years ago , I tried to "leave" with drugs like valium. I immediately slept, but few hours later I woke up suffocating , impossible to breath.

I can witness its a awful feeling.

It should work, I saved up my benzos the same way. I have a mix of clonazapam and diazepam. To be honest with you, I'm not quite sure how much benzos would help with SI, a real high dosage might just knock you out faster.

I'm sorry you went through that. How long did the suffocating last? Did you seek medical attention?

When I woke up , I though I was dying. Terrible feeling.i know some people will not understand because dyiing was the purpose.
I immediately call the emergency , I cant remember everything because it was long ago and I was totally under drug.
But it last way too long.

I'm sorry you went through that. Were you using a cocktail of meds or just the Valium alone?
